AT SPRINGFIELD.
SPRINGFIELD, H., November O.
There is absolutely nothing to be said
as to the probable action of the gov
ernor in the condemned Anarchists
case, as his exceilency declines 10 say
anything on the subject. The decision
of the United States Supreme Court
was made known to him shortly before
noon to day and his features az once
assumed an expression of real gravity.
He received a number of letters aud
petitions on the subject to-day, and it
! Is asserted that three Chicago ladies
visited him in the interest of the con-
demned men. The feeling is almost
universal here that
HE WILL NOT INTERFERE
with the sentence of the court, and that
the conditions are such that he cannot,
There is bare possibility that he may
interfere with clemency IN the interest
OF Fielden and SChwab. though he has
not said anything to inr;icate even this.
This afternoon, a small boy appeared
at one of the most prominent down
town corners, provided with supply of
pamphlets, containing
MN TRUMBULL's APPEAL
to Governor OgIesby in behalf of the
condemned men. Officer Birmingham
quickly put the boy to fight, by telling
him he would. arrest him if
he did not stop selling the
ABOUT the pamphlets. it being merely
TrumbuI's speech. 1t is bound, and
brilliantly entitled: "Was it fair
trial?-An Appeal to the Governor of
Illinois, in Behalf of the Condemned
Anarchists
The sergeant of the Central Police
detail said the officer acted on his own
jud ment. "He was probably misled
by the general style of the titIe.'' The
sergean. added: "But 1 think it is
much better at the present time that
circulars nf even such kind as this be
stopped, as it can only stir up the
people without doing any good"
The only persons except the relatives
whe had any extended conversation
with the condemned men, to day were
M. w. Salter, lecturer, and H D.
Lloyd, a newspaper editorial writer.
They were
IN EARNEST CONVERSATION
at the cell doors for two hours, The
gentlemen kept their object a profound
secret, but it is intimated that their
visit had something to do with a
scheme to get two or three of
the Chicago newspapers to come out |
edltorlally in favor of Communication |
OF sentence. The visitors said the sig
nifcance Of their visit would develop |
in few days. Mr.. Salter said Fielden |
had stated that be was misrepresented |
when local paper made him say, He |
would not ask Governor 0gIesby TO !
pardon him." By that, it Is under
stood that Fielder will ask for COM
mutation of sentence.
Captain Black said to a reporter, this |
evening, that he was disappointed, but
not surprised at the action of the
Supreme Court, as they were clearly
ENTITLED TO WRIT OF ERROR,
under the decisions of the Supreme
Court prior to this time. Captain
Black and large party will 20 to
Springfield next Tuesday, to present a
petition for Communication to the
,overnor.
Ex-Governor Palmer, this evening,
said to reporter that he did not be-
